Filed: 2008-04-24
Abstract: This invention demonstrates that KRC molecules have multiple important functions as modulating agents in regulating a wide variety of cellular processes including bone formation and mineralization. TGF-.beta. signaling in osteoblasts promotes the formation of a multimeric complex between KRC, Runx2, Smad3, and the E3 ubiquitin ligase, WWPl which inhibits Runx2 function due to the ability of WWPl to promote Runx2 polyubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. Furthermore, KRC and WWPl form a complex with RSK2 which inhibits RS K2 function due to the ability of WWPl to promote RSK2 ubiquitination. Methods for identifying modulators of KRC activity are provided. Methods for modulating an immune response, bone formation and mineralization and KRC-associated disorders using agents that modulate KRC expression and/or activity are also provided.
